known for being a diverse community of almost 40,000 people, offering an enviable balance of quiet residential areas, bustling business corridors and amble open space. It’s a place where one can enjoy a backyard barbecue with family and friends, put in a day’s worth of work at a corporate park, shop at boutiques and chain stores, and admire the great outdoors on a recreational trail — all on the same day while only traveling a few miles.
